Abstract:
A method is provided including delivering at least one electrical signal to tissue of a patient through an electrode. The method further includes assessing whether a net charge remains on the electrode a predetermined period of time after the delivery of the electrical signal. Systems for delivering such a signal, and assessing whether a net charge remains on the electrode providing the signal, are also provided.
